Riggwelter

Black Sheep

Specialties & Hybrids ABV 5.70%

You asked for a strong ale we gave you….Riggwelter a powerhouse of a beer. Much thought went into the creation of our flagship ‘strong' ale. To create something with real strength and depth we developed a unique recipe featuring rich espresso aromas dark fruit and roasted malt flavours. Riggwelter Ale takes its name from a local Yorkshire Dales farming term which has Norse roots; “rygg” meaning back and “velte” meaning to overturn. A sheep is said to be rigged or ‘riggwelted' when it has rolled onto its back and is unable to get back up without assistance. What better name for a strong beer from the Black Sheep Brewery in Yorkshire? Riggwelter is also available in cask. Bottled Riggwelter is available in many of the major supermarkets.
